30-something. She/her. Amateur knitter and professional third wheel.

Fantastic chalkboard on a bricked walkway. Writing reads: "Our chef has two Michelin tyres" and "Soup of the Day: whiskey".
A picture of the interior of Chetham's Library where, apparently, the Dark Academia aesthetic was born. Black wooden shelves, gates and vaulted beams... Delightful!
An image of a detailed Medusa head pendant - a female with snakes for hair - rendered in titanium with a titanium rope chain. The kind of thing which would raise questions and eyebrows if you wore it to work.
Tweet from user @jzux that reads: going Valentine's Day caroling (crying in public) This very much reflects my thoughts on this so-called 'holiday'.
An image depicting a man wearing flowing white trousers and shirt, standing on a white and blue, cloudy background. He's standing as though ready to be accepted into heaven, which is ironic, considering I would dearly love to send those who selected WHITE as Colour of the Year to have a fucking word with their maker.
Snowflake-shaped curtain lights hanging in a window, with numerous succulents and a begonia maculata in front of them
Headline from Variety.com: New 'Stargate' TV Series Ordered at Amazon from 'Blindspot' Creator Martin Gero
Screenshot of a randomised horror movie character trope gif; my selection landed on "The Final Girl"
Error message upon updating my work's website that says: "Validation failed. ACF was unable to perform validation because the provided nonce failed verification." Why are we using the word 'nonce' in 2025? Joe Blogg on the street has a VERY different connotation with that word...
A meme from @memesofbritish: text reads "People keeping getting the North/South divide wrong, and it's time to set the record straight" with a take on the DnD moral alignment chart laud over a map of England and Wales. Top row: over the north of Wales and Liverpool, Northern Good. Over Sheffield and Leeds, Northern Neutral. Over the North East coast, Northern Evil. Middle row: over Wales, Midlands Good. Over Birmingham, True Midlands. Over Norfolk, Midlands Evil. Bottom row: over Somerset and Devon, Southern Good. Over Bournemouth and the Isle of Wight, Southern Neutral. Over London and Brighton, Southern Evil.

An image of a pair of knee-high, military-style lace up boots, with a chunky heel. They'd make me look like a fucking bad-ass, and up my height to about 5'3".
Screenshot of the weather widget on my desktop telling me that on this, the 8th day of September in 2025, the temperature is MINUS 273 degrees Celsius. Because suddenly we've moved to Uranus.
A black t-shirt with the phrase 'Maybe she's born with it, maybe it's Sertraline' emblazoned on the front. It's reminiscent of the Maybelline advertising campaign, and a what better way to advertise that your girl is medicated than having the fact emblazoned across your tits?
DHL delivery tracker telling me I'm stop 69!
A truly lovely matt black Le Creuset mug, with gloss black bats adorning the side. A shame it's so wildly expensive.
A still from The Simpsons showing a newspaper clipping of Grandpa with the headline "Old Man Yells at Cloud". A befitting meme in response to a dude who I can only hope is trolling us all.
Video still from Sailor J's ICONIC Contouring 101 video on YouTube with the caption "if the men find out we can shape-shift they're going to tell the church".
Two mirror-tiled ghost ornaments (one pink, one silver), proving that disco lives forever
Screenshot of an email I received, supposedly from BT Sales, but the email address is dodgier than my stomach after eating gluten.
A discussion between my sister and I about a place called The Tea and Biscuit Club in Sussex, the existence of Rhubarb Pie flavoured Rooibos, and their fabulous multi-coloured teapots. Never let it be said that we don't know how to live.
A headline from Time Online that says "ChatGPT May Be Eroding Critical Thinking Skills, According to a New MIT Study". No news on whether those resorting to AI to write their essays had any critical thinking skills to begin with, however.
A photo of me, holding a glass of what I promise is only green smoothie, smirking at the camera and looking utterly shit-wrecked.
A woman wearing an oversized red, spangly, long-sleeved top with similarly baggy matching trousers. It looks like Dorothy's red shoes became sentient and are seeking revenge on all of Oz.
Picture of a t-shirt with a print featuring a stylised image of a Puritan with the text "member of the Roanoke Hide and Seek Club". Because I watched that episode of Buzzfeed Unsolved and have a weird sense of humour.
A screengrab from YouTube of a number of videos explaining how JD Vance, America's Vice President, met with Pope Francis mere hours before he died. This mirrors how former British Prime Minister, Liz Truss, met with the Queen the day before she died, in what's fast becoming a theme of elder statespeople meeting terrible human beings before shuffling off this mortal coil.
Gif of Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury from the first Marvel Avengers movie, saying "I recognise the council has made a decision, but given that it's a stupid-ass decision, I've elected to ignore it."
A screenshot from my ancient Android phone of a Google search for "tension rod net curtains".,
A blatantly sketchy text from someone called Seren, claiming to be from the HR department of TikTok. They've "reviewed" a resume I never sent and want to offer me a job as a "part-time partner". If I want to view more about the job role I've already applied for, I'm asked to click a link. All totally above board and legit. Obviously.
A well-timed pause on a Good Mythical Morning episode where Rhett is looking wide-eyed, horrified and unsettled.
Sceengrab of the Wikipedia page of Sir John Baker, who served as Chancellor of the Exchequer from 1545 til his death in 1558.
The most shoddily thrown together Photoshop editing job of models "wearing" a belt that I've ever seen. The photos are obviously lifted from other clothing listings, with models standing in a variety of poses and angles but the belt looks exactly the same - duplicated over each photo in a way that is so appallingly cut-and-paste it's hilarious.
